I’m reminding my daughter how her dad got a Liberal Arts degree in Psychology at UT–and he went on to have a successful career in finance. Even got his MBA while in his finance job. My daughter is bummed, feeling like Liberal Arts is upsetting, but it’s not! Life is long, so much promise and opportunity with being young. (And I got a Liberal Arts degree, too, at UT, in English, lol. Loved it.)

My son will be majoring in Econ at UT (BS track) and deciding between a minor in Finance or Accounting (leaning towards Accounting now)…as you said yourself, a very successful “business” career can be had with a UT Econ degree…especially if you do the fast track to McCombs Masters with their bridge program!

Son was rejected from the business school, but guess what, it just doesn’t matter, we are from Georgia, and he will be doing business at UGA, real estate to be exact. The real estate program at UGA is ranked #4. UTs is ranked #6. Thank God we have a great university you can get in to. Go Dawgs!

I got this - “The Office of Admissions is still in the process of reviewing your application for your selected major. At this time, we do not have an update to post to your MyStatus account. When we are ready to post and communicate a decision to your MyStatus account, you will receive an email notification to return and check your MyStatus account.” I’m an AET major (Fine Arts), when do decisions of those usually come? it says no alter than march 1st, but do I really have to wait that long?
What time do UT decisions come out for International Applicants?
I was one of those people with the enrollment deposit and I got in! psych BA non auto, 1490 sat, basic ECs, essays carried I think.
denied from plan ii which sucks, but I didn’t even think I’d get into the university so I’m thrilled!
